Don't anyone sleep on Andrea Dovizioso, that boy is bad, I think once he finds his groove, he would be untouchable... think about it this way, he was battling Jorge Lorenzo just last season in 250 gp, and look at where lorenzo is now!

It wouldn't surprise me. Nicky never seemed to have much respect from the folks at Honda, even after winning the world championship for them. He never seems to get the best parts/bikes. I think it is largely a US vs. Euro political point of view on Honda's part. It might be fun to see him with another ride. He has talent and the desire and perhaps he would flourish in another team.

Wins the title, and has to have it written in his new contract that he gets the same equipments as his teammate. WTF??

I think Ducati is still interested... They'd have to get rid of Marco Melandri, but he probably wouldn't mind since he hasn't been able to come to terms with the Ducati.
